The OVH Cloud white paper highlights how multi-cloud strategies can drive sustainability by optimizing energy and water usage, extending hardware lifecycles, and minimizing e-waste. Techniques such as closed-loop water cooling reduce resource consumption compared to traditional air cooling, while reusing server components extends their lifespan from 2–3 years to up to 9 years. Multi-cloud also enables organizations to shift workloads to providers with lower carbon footprints, streamline usage, and adopt brownfield facilities that cut construction-related emissions. This approach not only reduces environmental impact but also aligns cost optimization with sustainability goals.
